How we're managing impacts
To minimise noise impacts to you during these works the following measures will be undertaken:
- Respite periods will apply to noisy works (e.g. noisy equipment such as saw cutting will be undertaken in block of no more than 3 hours with at least 1 hour of respite between each block of work)
- Adhering to the compliance conditions as defined in the Environment Protection Licence (EPL)
- Orientating equipment away from noise-sensitive receivers where possible
- No unnecessary shouting or loud stereos/radios on site
- Communication between workers and plant operators using UHF radios and hand signals
- Where practicable, substitution using alternative low noise plant and equipment
- When applicable, implement mitigation measures to address noise disturbances
- All vehicles to be switched off when not in use.
